Thanks Dawn. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Welcome Betty

In case we can help while you wait for Lawrence - what details are given on the baptism record you mention?

[avm228]

I see an old thread elsewhere on the same family:

http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/Middlesex_County_UK/2009-12/1260298034

"The first child was born in 1843 in St Giles: daughter of John Joseph Calender and Ann Hutchinson now Richardson".

So from FreeBMD:

Birth, Sep qtr 1843

Ann Maria CALENDER

St Giles vol 1 p57

Thanks for your help! I will check out Ann Maria Calender, even though the name is quite different I may find success.....watch this space...

You're welcome - let us know how you get on

Hello Betty

I certainly can help you on all this.  I have a copy both of Ann's birth and baptismal certificate, and will willingly scan and send you copies if you wish to save you the cost of obtaining the BC.  I can also tell you a great deal about Ann's father and her siblings.  You may also be interested to know that one of Ann's uncles was the grandfather of the leader of the Easter Uprising in 1916.  I am very happy to exchange email addresses to make further communication easier.  Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

I should have thought to add, Betty, that I can also give you details about the very sad death of Ann's father.

Hello Lawrence
Thank you so much for replying! I'm keen to see Ann Maria's BC after searching for it for such a long time. It's kind of you to offer to email a copy, I can't seem to send you a private message though along with my email address - it may be because I am a new member to RootsChat.
I am aware of the sad circumstances surrounding the death of Ann's father but I didn't know about the Easter Uprising family connection...how interesting. I would love to find out why John Joseph and Ann kept changing their surname, I hope you know the answer Lawrence.
I will keep trying to send you a private note with my email address.
Thanks again.
